Nah!! dont take the pap smear!! Its well too risky! Ive all ready been warned off my aunty not to have any internal examinations what so ever when pregnant because when she was pregnant she had an internal scan and as soon as she went home she started bleeding which led to a misscarriage. I was worried about this happening to me so discussed things over with my doctor and she told me that there should not be any need for any doctor to be examining me down there. She also told me if the doctors at the hospital want to give me an internal then i should refuse it because there is no need for this to be done in the first place and she doesnt understand why other doctors do that.
Anyway i know i will be refuseing!!.

I had an abdominal scan whilst bleeding with my second baby they could not detect a heartbeat and asked if I would be happy for a transvaginal scan I accepted as at this point I thought history was repeating itself and I was going to lose this baby too. Seconds into the transvaginal scan they detected a heart beat. In early pregnancy its the best way to scan so in my circumstance it was the best option and my son is a happy and healthy 3 year old. But as plenty of people have said in this thread everyone is allowed their own opinion and you should stand up for what you believe in.

im 22 nd never had a smear? unsure why i think i supposed to get appointment when i went 21yrs but i got pregnant then. and they dont do them when your prgnant here in the uk?(is that right) ive had a dating scan which was a vaginal one. that didnt bother me too much. but i think i would be a bit concerned if they where scrapping my cervix whilst pregnant. the last time my mum had a smear they made her bleed. and i would not appreciate that in pregnancy. your only pregnant for 40 weeks im sure they can wait that little bit longer to do a smear. i thought the only way missing a smear was dangerouse was when you missed for like years not 40 week???
